Prompt of the day “Cocktail” - Why In The World.....

in #freewrite5 years ago

Seriously, cocktail?

Why in the world, cocktail?

Hey man I want to suck back your cocks tail!

How about we watch your cock pea while we are at it!

I have always wondered why do they call it a cocktail?

Does it have to do with the look of the drink compared to that of a cocks tail?

Seriously, it’s thought to be largely a ladies drink... hrm I bet you it was created by a dirty minded dude....

It’s actually a word I refuse to say, cocktail. I have referred to it as a rooster drink, fruity slurp, lady sauce, frozen goodness but never will I say cocktail!

Is there any names of things that just rub you the wrong way? Hearing the word makes you cringe?

Oh, I agree! Cock isn't exactly one of my favourite words to say, haha.
I've taken to labeling my drinks like so:
Whiskey = Sanity Booze
Wine = Sanity Wine
Cocktails = depends on which one it is. I usually only make the same one at home though, so, Blue Juice!! :D (blue curacao + coconut rum + vodka + pineapple juice)

I googled it, and apparently we have the french to blame. ;)

Another popular story comes from New Orleans, where an apothecary by the name of Peychaud (of bitters fame) served a mixed brandy drink in a French eggcup. Eventually the drink was named coquetier, the French term for an eggcup. Peychaud's guests shortened the name to 'cocktay,' and eventually it became 'cocktail.'

oh thank you for looking it up. Makes more sense now.

Indeed! The alternative doesn't bear thinking about, haha. Imagining all of these roosters in the back-room of a higher class medieval bar.

Rupert! Your finest cock's tail if you please, my good man.
~Thrusts a purse of twenty coins at the barkeep.~
Your finest.

I haven't free-written today....... I think that there counts, LOL.

I love when the comments are freewrites. You and @carolkean are excellent at that.

"Share" I really dislike the word "share" as it is commonly used as meaning "to speak your mind".

I never thought about this word cocktail before. Where did that word come from?

Thank you for expressing your opinion 😉
Something about share seems mandatory, like we are taught as kids to share but inherently we have the instinct to self preservation. Just a constant battle provoking concept even though it’s meant to reflect equality.

The bloody French as you saw in the other comment already 😅
